Toolbit SDK is Software Develepment Kit for measurement and automation system. It is prepared for a multimeter named as Toolbit DMM for now. Please see the following project page: https://hackaday.io/project/10398-luke-open-framework-multimeterlogger

The target platform of SDK is as follows:

• Ubuntu Linux
• macOS
• Windows
• Raspberry Pi

Source code is described by C/C++ but libraries for the following languages have been released by using SWIG:

• Python 3.6 or later:
• Node.js specially for Electron:

Install Python toolbit-lib package by pip command.

  pip3 install toolbit-lib

In case of linux, you might be required to install libudev-dev in advance and then to execute pip with sudo command. Please see here in details.

For example, you can get voltage/current measurement result from a connected device as follows:

  from toolbit import Dmm

  dmm = Dmm()
  dmm.open()
  print(str('%03.3f' % dmm.getVoltage()) + " [V]")
  print(str('%03.3f' % (1000.0 * dmm.getCurrent())) + " [mA]")

Toolbit SDK uses object-oriented programming.

• dmm instance is created by using Dmm() constructor
• dmm.open() method opens a target device
• dmm.getVotage() and dmm.getCurrent() methods return measurement values

Result will be shown as follows:

  0.003 [V]
  0.000 [mA]

Node.js library for Electron is prepared to build cross-platform desktop apps. It is used by Toolbit DMM GUI application.

Download the latest source from GitHub repository.

The following command/software is required to build library:

• make
  • For Windows, MinGW is highly recommended
• Ubuntu linux / Raspberry Pi
  • libudev-dev

Library for C++ is built by the following steps:

  cd src
  make

Object and library files are created in ToolbitSDK/build and ToolbitSDK/lib folders.

If you want to build other language bindings, please refer to the following pages:

• Python
• Electron

• https://github.com/signal11/hidapi
  • This repository contains this library as it is
  • Please see README.txt and LICENSE.txt in src/HIDAPI
